What kind of speed should I expect?

#1 Post by wijames » Tue Dec 09, 2014 10:48 am

I'm thinking about buying a 2013 Mercury 75hp four stroke for my 20' tri-toon. Can anyone give me some idea what max speed I should expect out of it with three people on board? With my 90 hp Honda I'm getting 25 if that helps.

Thanks, I was getting 25 with my 90HP Honda so I was hoping I wouldn't lose that much. I may have to re-think it but I can get a really good price on the engine.

20-22 Would be my guess.
